The war has ended, but with peace comes conflict. Antigone's brother Polyneices lies on the battlefield where he fell, his burial outlawed by Creon, the new king of Thebes. Should Antigone obey Creon, or must she follow her conscience and lay her beloved brother to rest? Fresh and timeless, Sophocle's masterpiece offers a profound reflection on the nature of power, democracy, and human rights. Owen McCafferty's muscular new version was premiered by Prime Cut Productions as part of the Ulster Bank Belfast Festival at Queen's.
